56 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 MY FIRST TWO SUBMISSIONS FOR COMICS WERE SHIPPED IN KITS PURCHASED FROM CGC. THEY WERE GRADED AND SHIPPED WITHIN A WEEK. MY LATEST SUSMISSION WAS NOT SHIPPED IN A KIT FROM CGC AND HAS BEEN IN SCHEDULED FOR GRADING STATUS FOR 3 WEEKS. IS THERE A CONNECTION. IF YOU PUCHASE A KIT DO YOUR COMICS GET GRADED FASTER?

IF YOU PUCHASE A KIT DO YOUR COMICS GET GRADED FASTER? A reasonable question. A few things: 1. The tier matters. So if your tiers were not the same, that could be a factor. 2. When you submitted matters, as turnaround times vary for a million different reasons. If you submitted 1.5 years ago, the turnaround time would be different than if you submitted a month a go, kit or not. 3. Did you search for a stated policy on the CGC website? What did it say (if anything)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillOnly25Cents Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) do you think CGC would have shipping kits in stock if they made TATs for submissions with shipping kits go faster?

Just want to point out that I think the kits have been out of stock for some time now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

56 Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 I wish there would be better communication from cgc. I purchased 2 small shipping kits from cgc in october. I submitted 5 comics. Received on 10/14, shipped 10/15. I submitted 6 more comics. Received 10/29, shipped 11/03. My latest submission was 6 comics received 12/10. All modern. Did not use a shipping kit. Status scheduled for grading as of 1/7. Why would you open submissions from 12/19 when you have not graded the ones from 12/10. Cannot get a response from cgc.

Each tier has different turn around times. Currently, Modern 128 days Express 28 days Walk through 8 days Also, if someone is submitting books for the walkthrough or Express tier, and write WT or EX on the package, it will be open before the others.
